Morelikeher Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 It has been three months since D-Day for me. I have maintained NC for two very long months. I collected quotes to keep me going and wondered if any of you had a particular quote that keeps you going as well. Also, I thought this might be a way of apologizing for the gut-wrenching songs I posted a few weeks ago. "Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are." ~ Arthur Golden "If you learn from defeat, you haven't really lost." ~ Zig Ziglar “Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.” ~ Ambrose Redmoon "When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place." ~ Unknown “I can be changed by what happens to me. But I refuse to be reduced by it.” - Maya Angelou Link to post Share on other sites

TheLoneSock Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) My personal favorite is: "You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand." - Woodrow Wilson Edited October 19, 2009 by TheLoneSock Link to post Share on other sites

Jacky Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 As it pertains to this forum "Love is unconditional, relationships are not."

MistyK Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 We go through life believing that finding out who we really are will devastate us. But information doesn’t hurt us, it only builds a platform from which we can leap into growth." - David Richo Link to post Share on other sites
